For ages my friend, Jenna, and I have been chatting about doing a photo session that's a "little bit out there". And I knew we had to make use of the beautiful Autumn season, the colours changing, the soft light, so the brain storming started and we started planning when and how we would do the shoot. While trolling the web for inspiration and ideas, I came across a gold painted body and thought it would fit well with the season. How lucky I am that my friend was up for anything and added to my creative brain storming, and was all for getting painted gold! So we chose our day and were ready...or so we thought. We stopped at Costa on our way to start the day with and Eggnog Latte and watched the sun gradually disappear and become doom and gloom, but we remained hopeful and Jen was so supportive and positive, we had to keep going. So we made our way into the park with props and equipment and started. At one point, while I was painting Jenna, the heavens opened up and poured down on us, so we had to improvise and Jen sheltered us with her dressing gown while I continued painting her, in the hopes the rain would let up. With such an eventful day, a willing model and some gold paint, I get to share the following with you.
